Can you trust AI? A story of biases in AI
Artificial Intelligence - either a dream or fear.
AI seems to be enabling so many things, with new use cases being published every day. It helps automatize business processes, improve healthcare, be the right solution to help us get ready for the future.
But while we could focus on the improvements it brings, we are too often recalled of one of its downsides: biases.
We could give so many examples, with major companies facing backlash from using an AI that only recognized a certain type of population or automatically stereotyping people.
So, we have to wonder: can we actually trust AI?
It seems like a hard thing to do, people being distrustful of the technology, organizations putting stops to AI programs after running into issues, movies such as Coded Bias highlighting the major bias issues.
Yet, we also see more and more programs, including governmental ones putting the emphasis on AI and encouraging organizations to adopt AI solutions. We also see a fair share of #ethicalai appear on Linkedin, with companies promoting a fair and non-biased AI. Is it working on making people approach AI solutions with faith or does it look like more of a marketing move?
Maybe it actually means that we are now ready to put a stop to the issue of biases? Ready to make Artificial Intelligence trustworthy.
This is what our guests tonight will discuss, each having a different view on the subject. They all have ideas on how we can make people trust AI, starting from educating people to making sure AI specialists are looking at the issue in the eye and are working on making it fair and ethical. Let’s work on trustworthy and ethical AI solutions, that will help improve everyone’s life!
